Buying Tips

Fastpitch softball bats are broken into three categories: aluminum, composite and a hybrid of the two. Aluminum bats are popular for their slight swing weight, which promotes control and bat speed. This material produces a highly durable bat with an increased sweet spot— or the optimal hitting zone on the bat’s barrel.

Composite is a lightweight material that provides an optimized sweet spot, dampened vibrations and consistent performance at the plate. Composite bats often require a break-in period before using in a game setting.

Composite/alloy, or hybrid bats, combine lightweight composite material in the handle with durable aluminum alloy in the barrel to minimize sting and maximize barrel “pop.”

Fastpitch softball gloves are your ultimate tool on the softball diamond. Your glove should fit snugly. Gloves that are too large hinder performance. The feel of your glove should be stiff enough to provide strength and protection during hard catches, yet flexible enough to close quickly when landing a catch.

Synthetic leather softball gloves are generally easy to close and don’t require a break-in period. Softened, oil-treated leather offers a game-ready feel with minimal break-in time. For the best performance, try a premium leather glove, crafted for durability in your game.

Expert Advice

This season, outfit for performance. It’s the details that matter in your softball game.

Hone your skills with the right softball training gear. A rebounding net lets you practice batting, pitching and more at home. Look for a lightweight tent that’s easy to pack and carry to practice. For a realistic feel during practice, go for a softball pitching machine. Many machines load more than a balls at once for efficient batting practice.
